To determine if the water in your home water is safe to drink, check for visible signs like clarity, odor, discoloration, and unusual taste or smell. Contact Southeastern Pure Water for your free in-home water test to determine the quality of the water in your home and to see if a home water filtration system might be right for you!

Florida’s water is often rich in minerals and contains various contaminants such as chlorine, sulfur, and sediment. Many areas also rely on groundwater, which may have additional impurities. Water purification systems provide cleaner, safer, and better-tasting water for your home. According to NC State University, all but 1% of Earth's water has some level of contaminant in it. It's never too early to start filtering!

There are five main water quality issues to look out for:

- Hard water: High levels of calcium and magnesium, often leading to scale buildup in pipes and appliances.

- Chlorine: Generally used in city water treatment, it can leave an unpleasant taste or odor.

- Sulfur: In well water, this leads to a rotten egg smell.

- Iron: Stains plumbing fixtures and laundry.

- Sediment: Sand, dirt, and other particles can clog pipes and affect water clarity.

There are many factors to consider for each type of home water filtration system:

- Whole-house filtration systems: Ideal for filtering all water entering your home, addressing issues like chlorine, sediment, and hardness.

- Reverse osmosis systems: Perfect for drinking water filtration, removing dissolved solids, chemicals, and even harmful bacteria.

- Water softeners: For treating hard water by removing calcium and magnesium ions.

- UV disinfection: Effective in eliminating bacteria, viruses, and pathogens, especially important if you use well water.

Yes! In many parts of Florida and Georgia, water is considered “hard” due to its high mineral content. A water softener system prevents scale buildup in appliances and plumbing, reduces soap scum, and prolongs the life of household systems.

Depending on the kind of water purification systems you have, different types of maintenance are required: 

- Filters: Replace them according to the manufacturer’s instructions, which is, in our experience, generally every six months.

- Water softeners: In our experience, refilling the salt reservoir periodically and cleaning the brine tank once a year is important to longevity.

- UV lights: In our experience, replacing the UV bulb annually ensures continued bacterial disinfection.

- RO systems: In our experience, pre- and post-filters should be changed every six months at the earliest, 12 months at the latest.

First, have our experts at Southeastern Pure Water LLC test your home's water to identify the main contaminants and other water issues present. Next, consider your budget and how much you can spend on continued maintenance. Finally, our experienced technicians will make recommendations on which water treatment systems are right for you to ensure clean water!

While Florida and Georgia tap water typically meet federal safety standards, many residents choose to filter their water to improve taste and remove chlorine, sediments, and other contaminants. A home water filtration system ensures additional protection and peace of mind.

In our experience, most water purification systems can last 10–15 years with proper maintenance. Key components like filters and membranes will need replacement at regular intervals based on usage and system type.

Many water treatment systems, especially reverse osmosis, can help reduce the environmental impact of bottled water by providing high-quality drinking water at home. However, reverse osmosis systems do waste some water, though high-efficiency models can minimize this.
